Natural ventilation: Harnessing wind and heat to create a good internal climate

Our natural ventilation systems (also known as passive ventilation systems) harness wind and heat to create a comfortable and healthy internal environment, with optimal temperature and humidity levels, and good air quality.

Natural ventilation systems:

  • Will reduce the building's ongoing energy requirements compared to mechanical systems or air conditioning, and so are “greener”
  • Will occupy less space
  • Will require lower maintenance costs
  • Can provide additional natural daylight if required
  • Can be either manually or automatically controlled.

Cost-effective and energy-efficient natural ventilation (also known as airflow ventilation)

Our natural ventilators harness wind and heat to create a comfortable and healthy internal environment, with optimal temperature and humidity levels, and good air quality.

These ventilators can be designed to automatically open and close. The ventilator controls can range from a simple open/close switch to a fully integrated energy management system with carbon dioxide and temperature measuring, weather sensors and interfaces with building management systems.

These ventilation systems can provide a highly energy efficient solution that requires a small initial investment to maintain a good internal climate with extremely low running and maintenance costs. Passive ventilation is inherently sustainable!

Ventilation solutions tailored to every type of building

We can design a tailored natural ventilation system for all types of buildings – from schools to offices, from power generation plants to shopping centres. By bringing our uniquely broad expertise across different specialties, we are able to design the system that best meets the requirements of your project. Our support goes beyond the design stages, through to the installation and, subsequently, to service and maintenance.
